The 20-somethings juggling three jobs to make ends meet

BBC News

Ashlin McCourt clocks up 60 hours a week working as a civil servant, a waitress and a baker because life's so expensive, she says. The UK unemployment rate stands at 4.9% - however, increasing numbers of those in work are juggling more than one job. While working in multiple jobs and side hustles has long been a needs must for many households to manage the cost of living, there are now a record 1.35 million adults working at least two jobs. It is mostly Gen Z - adults aged up to 29 - driving this poly-employment trend - according to Deputy, a global workforce management platform, which analysed more than 20 million shifts done by over 300,000 UK workers. For 28-year-old Ashlin from Northern Ireland, having more than one job seems normal.


What Lt. Col. Boz and Big Tech's Enlisted Execs Will Do in the Army

WIRED

When I read a tweet about four noted Silicon Valley executives being inducted into a special detachment of the United States Army Reserve, including Meta CTO Andrew "Boz" Bosworth, I questioned its veracity. It's very hard to discern truth from satire in 2025, in part because of social media sites owned by Bosworth's company. But it indeed was true. Boz is now Lieutenant Colonel Bosworth. The other newly commissioned officers include Kevin Weil, OpenAI's head of product; Bob McGrew, a former OpenAI head of research now advising Mira Murati's company Thinking Machines Lab; and Shyam Sankar, the CTO of Palantir.

Tech Startups Eye a World, Post-Virus, Back in the Office

"We believe that we will be our best selves the more that we are together," he said. As more tech companies leverage the promise of flexible work arrangements as a competitive advantage, some are going the opposite route, betting that a strong office culture is what will help them recruit and retain the best talent. Proponents of fully in-office work cite a range of benefits, from the collaboration that can result from happenstance interactions to easier communication. Plus, they add, plenty of people enjoy working in offices, especially after months spent, for some, in makeshift arrangements. Given the tech industry's status as a bellwether for workplace trends, professionals in many industries are watching to see where it lands.


How to Switch Careers into Data Science (Without Burning Out along the Way)

#artificialintelligence

I am particularly interested in the areas of sustainability, finance, and various topics related to data science. In the sustainability field, the circular economy, sustainable consumption patterns, and the intersection of sustainability, digital transformation, and data science are issues I especially care about. On the data side, I enjoy working on NLP problems, time series forecasting, and data visualization. One of my latest projects implements the Longformer model to analyze biographical data. And an area I am currently learning more about is unit testing in machine learning.

How the tech industry can help fix our AI skills shortage

#artificialintelligence

In 2015, Uber opened a research facility around the corner from Carnegie Mellon University's National Robotics Engineering Center in a move positioned as a partnership between the two organizations. Within months, dozens of faculty members had left their positions for full-time roles at Uber, draining the center of much of its talent. Other major tech companies have followed a similar path โ€“ in 2018, Facebook launched AI labs in Seattle and Pittsburgh headed by former professors. These stories provide a window into a tug-of-war that's been playing out between the tech industry and academia. Keen to build products and services that use AI and machine learning, tech firms and other businesses have been hiring away researchers and professors from universities, creating a shortage of academics who can teach the next generation of data scientists. The proportion of computer science PhDs who stay in academia has reached a "historic low," the Computing Research Association has said.

The 6 levels of autonomous driving: Autoweek Explains

#artificialintelligence

Volvo, Mercedes, Audi, Tesla and others already have cars on the road with a bunch of autonomous features. That includes full stop-and-go radar cruise control, lane centering, parking assistance and more; in fact, with all of its stuff activated, our latest long-term Mercedes E400 wagon is probably controlling more inputs than the driver under normal circumstances. But none of that makes a car "autonomous." Tesla calls its system Autopilot, to its own peril; Audi's is called Traffic Jam Assist; and Volvo's is DrivePilot. All of them turn the wheel, at least on the expressway, slow for stopping traffic and accelerate when it has cleared.


Will AI kill us all after taking our jobs?

@machinelearnbot

Only believe running AI code, not marketing: the latest AI is updated in your cell phone weekly, is your cell phone sentient? For details about what the current AI can or can't do and why, please read: "AI (deep learning) explained simply", and "Deep Learning is not the AI future". But since most people identify the word AI with the sentient AI seen in the movies, and Google, Facebook, and "AI billionaires" are claiming to have "AI", people can only think at the sci-fi movies AI. Then, with large amounts of bots posting believable fake news on social networks, complete with photos and fake witnesses comments, and fake discussions between bots, you can influence elections or stock prices or anything required, quickly, using very little money and people.
